Yamagata reunion

Here's me and my Yamagata ladies!! We met up in Takasaki this weekend. Esther came down from Yamagata, I came from Tokyo, and Sinead came all the way from Canada. We all met and lived in Yamagata city in 1999. Wow, that was 10 years ago!! Saying "time flies" is such a cliche, but it is soooo true.

My new view

Here are a few shots of the sunset from MY new kitchen window. Isn't it gorgeous? The photo quality is not too great, but I hope to see a lot more of these in my future.

I LOVE ORANGE!!!!

I moved to the Koenji area of Tokyo. Actually my apartment is right between Koenji and Nakano. I'm within walking distance of both stations. The area is cute with lots of restaurants, bars, thrift stores, and tiny shops selling lots of unusual things that you never knew you needed until you see them. It's time to go exploring in my new neighborhood!!

Finally..........

I moved into a new apartment. Yay!!! I'm so excited, but I've got lots of unpacking and organizing to do now.
Here's the kitchen. My very own kitchen!!!

This picture is looking into the living room from the kitchen.
